Great location, but experience could be improved

We had a very nice stay in this apartment for 2 days at the end of a week in Portugal. We had stayed in Lisbon for 2 nights, then Porto for 3 nights, then back to Lisbon to stay in this apartment.

First, the positives: The location is fantastic. Seems like an absolutely wonderful part of Lisbon. And there is the most wonderful pastry shop downstairs. The apartment itself is also great (although there are some details that could use fixing).

Now, the negatives: Pedro met us and showed us around the apartment, but he was not helpful at all. He was very pleasant and let us know about the pastry shop. However, he neglected to tell us that two pages of instructions for the apartment were missing, even though he knew about it. As a result, we spent 40 out of our 48 hours there very frustrated. We only had the code to one of the three wifi networks, so we had no wifi in most of the rooms. Pedro told us there was no clothes dryer, when in fact it was a combined washer/dryer. But we spent over an hour trying to get it to work correctly as the instructions were on the missing piece of paper.

There were minor things that needed fixing, like the shower head no longer could stay up on the mount and had to be handheld. But we would not have cared about any of that if we knew all the details about the apartment. The previous two places we stayed at were fabulous at showing us all the details of the apartments, so this one stood out as being a terrible job of showing us around.

Ana and Andrea later emailed us an old version of the manual for the apartment, which solved most of the problems. Perhaps that could be emailed to everyone prior to arrival. Or perhaps have someone else show the apartment that is more helpful. If we had been properly oriented to everything, this would have gotten 4 or 5 stars.
